We aim to cultivate and send out leaders with hearts that are kind, resilient, courageous, confident and deeply rooted in the truth of God’s inerrant Word.

I have had the privilege to work in such positions as Student Ministry Coordinator and Multicultural Leader where you receive discipleship from your supervisor and fellow leaders and in turn are able to disciple others throughout the college. This discipleship is a working together to draw our relationships closer to God and one another.
